She may be a newcomer here in the United States, but in Latin America, you can’t miss Paulina Rubio. In fact, Star has learned that the new X-Factor judge was recently at the center of a highly publicized cheating scandal back home

The 42-year-old reportedly broke up the marriage between Venezuelan singer Gerardo Bazua, who she coached on La Voz (Mexico’s version of The Voice), and his wife of ten years.

“Paulina’s moved on, but she caused wreckage from her affair,” an insider tells Star. “She was hoping her new fans in the U.S. wouldn’t find out about it, but she’s ready to be judged.”

For more on the affair, including what Gerardo’s wife has to say, pick up the latest issue of Star on newsstands now.
